Agreed; I'm now certain it's a local tuning issue.  My first attempt to alter the file descriptor limits for local testing resulted in catastrophic system failure, though, so I have no clue as to the correct method to alter the TIME_WAIT time.

I will continue to investigate, thank you for the lead.
